here now. Yeah.
Uh huh. Well you think you have only 50 or 40 or 25 minutes. So we have to
go faster than usual. Usually I like about two hours so that we can see
the slides and then a discussion and the discussion is at least as
important as the slide. So I think I'm entitled the sliding 10 minutes
very attached.
Well, many of you have seen the slides anyhow or has seen some of the
buildings that the slides are showing and instead of trying to present you
with the concept, which might look pretty abstract. So I think it's pretty
real at the beginning of try to commits some of those concepts at the end.
So what do you see now at the beginning is some of the buildings in
Scottsdale
and then some models and then some of the work we do in the called his
don't you with the new building that We call Arcosanti town for 3000
people.
This is the plan of basanti. And
The first experiment, the second experiment entered 4th and so on. Most of
those are still casting or soil castings, which means you pile the soil,
you shape it and then you do your shell and concrete and then after that
you escalate and you do the interiors and this happens to be the entrance
here.
I could get a could I get a glass of water from somewhere. Thank you. Uh
The first experiment was done as a consequence of doing silk casting. I
mean slip casting of ceramics and due to the nature of the soil. I decided
I would try something larger. So this was a cast instead of play, it was
concrete. A 30 x 30 about Islam. And he became a little house. The same
thing was for this one for this studio and ceramics area a little later on
and then tradition and so on.
Mhm.
How I'm going backwards.
This is these apps made in on a silt is a steel casting. Well, ceramics
there. This tunnel going into this area,
the cat cast. Looking from this side from the south side,
the little drafting room,
the north studio looking south into the ceramics area.
We do the ceramics and that please. This is one of the patios and that's
the swimming pool, Kennedy
the same patio.
This little house Being about 6ft below grade is not underground house.
It's a below grade house which makes a big difference.
The larger studio in the afternoon. Do you
some of the techniques, This was the procedure we used in building these
apps. Yeah, this is silk. We are now casting this section.
That's paper. Okay,
while you built to keep out the structure until you get your keystone in
place so that the structure becomes structurally completed.
That's the making of this case. To obviously that's the silt
and that's after the completion the keystone is cast. We can free the
structure.
Uh the area where the ceramics and old skylight in cardboard. The new
skylight in plastic and concrete.
The making of a wall. The same technique by using soil in this case the
suit comes from the riverbed here and salt very little bit. But this is
soil which is the on the spot really. It's about five ft deep. Before we
get into the college. This is the structure and the world. So you see the
negative here is positive
the making of another for for a storage place
and you see the ribs being cut and we are pumping concrete this show.
And then you see the difference between the areas where you have the
plastic and the area where you don't have the plastic. The soul is
incorporated some in the shell by using colors in this way. You get some
of my traumatic
elements in the south. You see them later. Better.
This is one of the phases in making this show
before the structural casting
before and after.
We have a number of bitches cut by the bulldozer. While we were escalating
those structures. So what we did we landscape in this manner by just
packing the soil and reshaping it every three or four months and then we
decided we worked Make them permanent. So we cast thin shells about 1" and
concrete using this chicken wild and I was forcing some sort
and that's it. Yeah.
The making of an apse including one of the patriots this time using tempos
as a form of those clinical largest. You go up one time
123
finishing this perhaps by assembling and heart which has been precast on
the silk bed is the silk bed. And the arch after this has been demolished.
So they have a shell again divided in segments missing the keystone which
is going to be cast in place. And this is the assemblage of those elements
yet keep in mind. This is all amateur work, how professionals involved
and done without practically without cash. Not long at all. This is the
keystone build on the spot
bench honing table and the tree house
structure. Yeah, this is the making of the walls of the larger house. We
call the cat cast because the caterpillar tractor shape the roof before
the casting. This is gonna be fighting. We used uniting into its occasions.
This is casting my hand and this is the texture of the ceiling in this
herd casting technique.
The this is the glazing line. I prefer not to have the lights
those are
prioritize supporting the roof.
Those are little dividers that were cast on the on the ground and lifted
using colors. Painting was the 4th with similar colors and then casting
the beginning of the canopy. 12 poles, 12 telephone poles on four
feelings
the shaping
for the form in soil, the painting and the demolishing of the form before
the raising amazing. It's the color finished. We're calling the call and
we're going to put reinforcing the structure. Show. This is a three ton
slab three, x 32 and this is the color that you get
in this procedure.
This desperation for the swimming pool. The swimming pool is located so
that in winter is sunny in summer has some shade.
Uh one of the few occasions when professionals were holed into a good
finishing,
you know, we painted a place called like using single cause
Unfortunately last this was done six years ago. So five and last spring we
had a bad allergy case. We put too much closing in most of the paint fed
up. So now we're called up down to there.
What what
making all the sticks of concrete Being forced by wire land which is
thousands of little wires about an inch long and 10 miles in diameter
thrown into the mixer. You make a slab, you have dividers private form so
you end up having those sticks after they cured you assemble them. This is
in this way. This is,
can you go up with the start? Yeah, designed this is another structural
building the same
and listen to the apps for family would Now I'm using this spherical shape
very often and I'm going to use it in arcosanti Again, the reason is that
it's enclosed shelters an area which is an outdoor shelter in such a way
as to be very sunny in the winter very shady in the summer. If this is
open to assault, we'll talk about that later when I show you the model
present. This was the other
the very tough mound. The domestic mound.
Uh huh. This is a mother who we made all the models for the the
archaeologists inside of this.
This is the making of another small. The quickest one. You have a very
rough mountain. You finish the top of the mountain. Then you cast so you
keep casting down horizontal layers, finishing first. This man at the soil
form. So we're going to cut down another level the last footing, casting
last. And then you escalate. The students are putting around designs.
Those sort of design that this boy has put.
This is the last building Konstanty. And I used the flannel cloth about
3ft wide deep plaster made in that shape by hanging it supplied sweat
metal frame. If you don't see that. Then when he's stiff and pretty rigid
, you assemble them on this calf holding and you make a bowl.
The form of all when you cast your structural sure. And what you are not
is that inside your this plan as a permanent form.
The first flannel segment short party became out of the studio. We have
four of those that work quite well as You have two tables.
This is the glazing
using power poles and whatever we could
put together.
Mhm We started Yeah.
This work With young people during the summers and that went on for about
10 years. I think we used to have one class, one summer workshop. Then we
got into three or four now we have nine this year Still we are 11, we had
250 students in our group, the more prominent group and I've been working
on the new side but this photo was taken when we were still pretty small
and it's one of the meeting to discuss work the reasons for doing what we
do.
The katana Foundation which is the foundation I somehow founded is
supported by work of this kind metal works, ceramics work and royalties,
some commissions traveling and so on. So that's how we carry on the work,
the development of ideas and so on. This is a foundry casting. This is
sand big bill like that one.
Those are large groups like mobiles. This is a Started from the original
cast into into aluminum in this case this was the regional was instead of
the most and then it was translated into this 20 ft figure in court and
for the center down in phoenix this was also alone from from start to form
the application of the technique of casting and the sort of was used in
son of material because we were asked to do so Yeah. Mhm This outdoor
theater. It's about the staging is about 20 ft below ground. Trade this
stage with staging additional levels of bridge and so on and also staging
along this runway. Did you see that
let's go back.
This is part of the runway.
The preparation for the forms of those two columns that have staircases
inside. Okay, the beginning of the work for this inverted shell. Those are
performing those shells.
Maybe you from the top coming down, there's a bridge.
Does the light towers, This is what corner of the stage showing different
textures would soil an embankment.
It came out very bad. Mhm Uh huh. This is the No way this one began as a
as a workshop, like the ones we have in Scottsdale and it ended up like a
something like a prison camp. So we got out of it with my group.
This is the back of the stage, the roughness of the form that we use as a
casting back in
some of the models of bridges. And I'm showing those because they contain
somehow I the beginning of the idea of making use of large structures for
different purposes instead of for one purpose. So, the bridge contains all
the other facilities like restaurant viewpoints or collections museums and
so on.
Those were made in sealed. Originally cast plaster this case
to your structure,
not you're starting
the same one.
A bridge which also works as a ramp because you can come down into the
lower level will go up
on the side of that bridge,
double cantilever rich
same one
sketch for one country infrastructure could be half bridge footbridge.
This is the sketch this is 3003 Dimensional sketch
Cochran exhibit that was took place about two years ago, we made a large
model of a suspension bridge. It's a 40 ft 45 ft moderating.
It's a suspension bridge, but instead of having to two pilots with their
own foundations and then the anchorages with very massive foundations.
Again, you have only two pilots with foundations and nothing else. And
this happens because this problem balances with its own way. The other
pilots, the cables Between them are supporting the Broadway, in this case
a three level multi lane highway. So you have an inch there against the
pilots and then this pretty heavy are sticking out, balancing the opposite
inside. There will be other facilities like collection or something
connected with the history of the place.
The first activities amount about the urban problem was this message
project and I picked up a meza as a wasteland area site and on this
wasteland, I tried to organize that A town for about two million
population. The idea was that you used land, which is not good for farming
for instance, and at the same time you use water at least twice your damn
and decide where the dams have more these are. And then you use water
domestically and power production and so on. And then you recycle and go
down and use the water for farming. This was done about two years ago and
12, 10 or two years ago. Many of those things were not very fashionable.
Then another thing that wasn't. So was this
park at the center of the militia. This was a quarry where you would
produce the aggregate for roadways and for buildings, sand, gravel and so
on. Possibly see man if it's the kind of thanks well that can make
students and that instead of leaving this car as we do in general, when we
do mining, this car would be made into a man made park. So with with
engineer theologians,
technocrats, technologies, you would have architects, artists, craftsmen
and so on making this into a man made landscape.
There was a sense of learning center here connected through this part of
the theological center. There were many belts. Let's save activities. One
was for home industries, one was for a standard
production and marketing and this was almost a convertible because we're
using water, gravity flow of water for transportation, at least half of it.
Then there was mm villages that were villages organized around the civic
center. So they would have a city townships organized between those two
belts and finally at the edge almost at the edge of the message sent into
the mesa where recycling plants, where all the rejects the garbage, the
letters and the sewage will be treated to produce new raw materials,
fertilizers and so on.
This was a theological center. This learning center. This suggestion of
this landscape. Oh that was good containing buildings like auditoriums,
museums, shrines, public star chose and so on,
I think. Mhm.
Mhm. I tried to go quickly through some of those diagrams because they are
trying to illustrate my approach to the environmental problems
which is only where you can find an architectural solution to our problems
in this case are ensuring what the way the universe might be divided in.
So I say the nature goes three ways the terminus tick way, which is the
universal mass energy. I call this the cosmo genesis in genesis because
it's not we're not dealing with a static thing with a process. So you have
a cosmo genesis dealing with the mineral universe. That's a and some of
the characteristics of this universe are that it is entropic, statistical
rational, gradual, predictable Simula ble and structural. And I call this
the word of indifference. It goes by the conservation of energy, the
genetic way which is a biological universe. I use the term biogenesis.
It's the genesis of the living universe. It is instinctual, unconscious
duration, all evolutionary irreversible, selective, nonce immutable
sensitized social morphological, this is the universe, the work of
innocence. And it's somehow it goes by the laws of concentration of energy.
Any kind of living phenomenon is a concentration of energy in very
peculiar ways with a very complex kind of inner interactions. And then
there is a cultural way which is the human way. And this is the home of
genesis. It is mental, conscious duration of evolutionary irreversible,
willful non Simula ble compassionate social manipulative formal. So it has
many of those characteristics but you had a few ones like and there the
cultural, the willful compassionate and so on in the form and this is the
world of good and evil because this is only where good and evil appears
cannot appear here. This is innocence. Only here you have this choice
between the good and the bad and this in a way it goes according to the
law implementation implementation of energy and by this I mean the
implementation of the spiritual energy the mental. So you have in a way an
entropic university and you have an assassin tropic university you go from
a tendency to entropy to a tendency towards a central
which means you move from matter into spirit. So you have a spiritual
ization process moving from the mineral into the spiritual. Uh huh
Good.
Uh huh.
In this diagram I'm trying to distinguish between process and becoming.
I'm doing this because we are somehow stuck with this idea of change and
we take change always something positive just because for the sake of
change I say that crosses a manipulation by our decision process belong to
the technological growth is manipulation by inner decision growth belongs
to the environmental. So I'm distinguished very sharply between the
technological environmental
and one is an outer it's something which had decided about outer force and
the environmentally decided that inner force look positive performance of
technology which acts by way of oversimplification. Whenever you introduce
technology to solve a problem, you introduce an element of all
certification. This is our technology can work and succeed in working for
us, but growth is a performance of the environment which acts by way of
complex education. So you have a dilemma a dialectic between using a tool
that tends to simplify the problem and in the end the goal which is not a
simplification of a complex ification process, defines changes. Growth,
defiance in Grozny, contrary man is mesmerized by change and start by
rocket endorsement. So this tends to present the problem we have faced.
Technology gives us an oversimplified universe while the environmental
spiritual is seeking a more complex universe.
Uh huh.
I'll keep I'll do this. one escaped
in order to illustrate this question of complex ification. I used the seed
as an example the vegetable, the animal, the human and the social seed
originated. Cycle of gathering and organizing matter in a progress through
the complex and responsive organism. When you're when you're watching a
seat developing into applying for instance, you're not watching an
explosive process. You are watching an implosive process is the seed which
is some kind of a magnet able to collect from the environment those things
and organize them in such a specific way. Us to make itself into a small
universe.
The living is then a cooperative process, not this integrity, one which is
dead. In order to have this process. You have you have to add the butter.
Cooperation Without cooperation. You don't have plans. Animals societies
life. And it is also an implosive process, not an explosive one. It is a
miniaturization process, favoring you have a more complex interaction,
making the becoming so this is mandatory wherever you seek life, whatever
you seek non light, which is that you have this integration explosion
um entropy pollution.
Therefore, in any given system, the liveliest Quantum is also the most
complex in any given system. The most complex. Quantum is also the most
miniaturized. Now this is the guideline for my work in going about the
problem of the environment. If we want to define realistically an
environment for men, there is evolutionary. We have to fit this
methodology which is the methodology for evolution.
I think I'll skip that is too long and
the smoke
uh huh.
And Mhm. Now this complexity in miniaturization miniaturization process, I
try to fit
into the ecological idea which is that this idea of having cities which
are a fraction of the size of what they are now. But instead of being flat
, two dimensional.
And I'm saying there's a connection between this commitment to many of the
problems that we're facing. Very crucial problem. We're faced with one is
the exploding population so you can serve more people by this. Our
ecological system. You can also take care of the ecological back by this
psychological coach. You can take care of the problem waste what the
solution of the problem waste is fundamentally in this ability to
miniaturize the any performance.
It takes care automatically almost because of those to the problem of
pollution. The ocean is waste. In a much larger term pollution is
coinciding with enter whatever is against life. He's pollutant which means
is entropy.
You have automatically land here and water conservation. It's about
converging into this commitment.
It is a structuring of the environment, desegregate physical people,
institutions, performances, et cetera. And it is also the only way of
really facing the problem of the energy crisis which is too much
consumption for a limited amount of energy available.
And this is very crucial. Mhm element of this point. And then he has also
very much to do with hopefulness, disillusionment and and the ability to
see some sunlight in the future.
Now this is all nice talk but it doesn't mean very much unless you're able
to to go beyond somehow the means those are the means to achieve a certain
platform of congruence and health within the biased.
Unless unless we go beyond this we might be a very healthy society but
very dull. So this is a function of the meat of the ends and the ends are
to produce a more lively, more intense, more a human life.
I've been trying to in a way to incorporate those ideas in what is the
environment that we could try to develop in order to fit life and the
Earth. And there are some very sketchy suggestions about this. So from now
on, what you see are only suggestions, only symbols, no blueprints. And
you should maybe forget most of what you see. Just try to retain the
concept and work around it and see if he has merits.
That's good. This is a sketch. One of the earliest sketches about this
idea and it's received very, very elementary but if this is a section or
let's say, of an urban system, you see the ground level here and
everything which is below ground level is given to technology in the sense
that its automated is productive here. Use for warehousing and it doesn't
need the presence of many people just checking fixing
somehow, surveying something which works by itself automatically about
ground level. You have the actual city, which means an urban system that
has the institutions of the city and the private institution for the
person in the family for the group. The vertical transportation system
becomes very essential and as we all know, is far more efficient than the
result of transportation. Take the elevators and compared to the car.
Two illustrate this concept. I worked around 40 schemes and I used 30 in
the oncology
and some of the schemes for floating systems and this is one two main
types of structures. one is production center center very closely
organized and you can begin with one production centers and develop urban
system by having more centers, those liberals of urban structures. And mm
This is one of those canisters. A production manipulation of material that
you get from the sea, chemicals, minerals and proteins, their storage,
shipping work related to this urban life and then more urban life on those
ribbons parks
and the whole thing can float.
The same idea of the developing community. You start with a hub and
develops into a metropolitan area. This has to be seen horizontally. Not
as it is their upright.
Mm hmm.
If you are in a continental shelf in your ankle
to the rock bottom, you can lose energy by having water reservoirs filled
and emptied according to the tides changing level of the Let's see we
happen to have structure which could be in a way oncologist if they were
plan in the road minute. If you have a dam on this nature which is a block
of cement, you plan it. So instead of being a block of cement is a block
of cement. It's carved my design instead of having a dead muslim you have
in the city, which means you put you can inject into this massive man made
about in the life of the community. No, by cutting through this innovation
that came to give a section. If this is the water body storage warehousing
and some industries against the water on your wall, you can hear that
residential facilities from homes to parliament house the largest
structure. You can have them. The public institutions from learning to
marketing
held and so on.
Dams are very special centers, very special points in an ecological system.
They you have water power, water for different uses, domestic relations,
irrigation and so on. Your power, your roadways and you have this massive
structure. So it's begging, begging for life in a way. This is the
smallest team. But the same idea of for the strong somehow morphology
which is to them which contains different kinds of activities, labs or
collections of specimens accelerates
much larger instructional. So how in the same being of making this into a
city.
Mm
All those appeared in into the book. Now, as I said, a caution you in
seeing in those schemes more than doodles in a way. But they are
suggesting dimensions, functions and relationships. This is about close to
twice the past a building and this means it's about one mile in diameter.
The larger this is about half And it would be for about 450,000 people.
It's so small as a city that you can walk throughout it in a few minutes
and you can also get out of it within a few minutes. The skin is where you
are private. The life of the city developing the inside is the Yeah, the
public commercial merchandizing learning it is the car is stopped at the
edge of the city. It has no way to go into it. There are no rules.
So you get the legs again functioning for you.
This is a For one million population. It's something like a twin city.
Again, this dimension is less than two miles. I think moving sidewalks,
elevators, escalators, bicycles, and legs. Thousands and legs.
Mhm.
If you adopt the idea of the linear city which simulated probably we will
be adopting it now in a very gross way when we have the big Eastern sport
Mysterio What? But it's still not that idea. Mm some advantage would be
evident. one is that you have a main transportation mode and in the system
which carries all sorts of modes from trucks to cause a tool, trains and
so on, including airports on the roof. And then you plug in into this main
logistical center which goes throughout the inner city, you plug your
urban communities. So by living in this servant community, you are
directly connected with the main transpiration system, with the urban
institutions and also with the open landscape. This is so because you
contain the transnational dimension within maybe three miles or so,
Given this idea, you had to bridge obstacles. This is a suggestion of
bridging river
or abridging, can you? So this bridge becomes a town of Mysterio 70,000
people and something similar here.
I had extreme illustrated in the book to suggest the possibilities are
almost endless idea that you can obtain once you accept The three
dimensional approach. This is a little town about 3000 people compared to
Palestine building.
This is a larger one, About 170,000. This is About 250,000. This is
Parliamentary 2000. This is killed in Palestine building. Now, I have to
tell you again, there is no reason to go to those extremes. You can stay
within those limits and come out with a very substantial
the whole city.
This is the little the little one About 3000 showing the inside. And this
would be where the public life would be somehow served. Shopping, learning
play,
promenading and so
in the outer. This is where private very part of life could.
Mhm.
This is a larger one. About 270,000. And it's really a cluster of
skyscrapers, but instead of being isolated, needles sticking out from one
floor of logistics Or two or 3, it's a connection of those skyscrapers at
many levels. Mhm on radio, radio and all mr conference and so on,
horizontally. Not horizontally. So you have a good flow, good logistical
flow which is absolutely mandatory, wherever you are. You're dealing with
not thousands or millions, but billions of interactions.
This is the smaller one.
This is the tale of that one. Well, today's somehow Midway Palaces gardens
and so on,
which is here in this one, we try to suggest the variety you can achieve
once the the skeletal system which I call the three dimensional topography
is established and the treaty mentioned topography is the carrier of maybe
just
This is the same one. This has been used by playboy in june history and
they landscaped it quite well. But they made it so and almost that it's
taller than the mountain and you'll see comes up. It's too bad. It is out
of proportion because the montage is pretty good
section.
Still the same.
Now, this is the scariest one. It's a curable, one km inside About 4,
450,000 people. And in a way it was the challenge of accepting hey, given
shape the cube and trying to organize it into an urban system. So there
are skyscrapers supporting you. Yeah. Landing facilities and the skin is
the residential. Which does not to be only empowerment. Housing. Can be
also Yes. Including mentions.
Mm hmm, totally inside of you.
One of the 30 examples in the book is this space capsule About 70,000
people. And instead of being only a gadget deprived of any biological
reference besides people. It is a cylinder. You see half of it which is
lined by vegetation. Part of the a voluntary system. It works because you
have rehabilitation. MS access which produces gravity. So you stand inside
of this landscape instead of being on top of it like we are hurt. Mhm. And
because of this is a pressurized system. The whole structure is a pencil
torture. And those are the equivalent of skies. You can float out of your
window and navigate within this landscape that surrounds you. So you have
three, you have a green stuff on the ceiling which is about
500 ft away. Many how you're living. As I was saying, inside of this green
landscape
and the other elements are very much useful for the, for the idea of what
the city can be while you work on this subject,
an environment which is fitted within a month. What about the space? Yeah.
Who are you
pushing the wrong button?
It's good. Okay.
This was a, the subject of some work
with a form of the company and Rutgers University. This is a plan for an
airport in new york, new york between new york and new york in the meadows.
This is the landing strips. Those are taxing
roads going into this taxi. So you learned practically in the center of
the city without ever flying on top of it. And you land in here, Your taxi
there. So you go into the city or you come from the city. The city is 800
ft high, 20 km in diameter. About one million population. The skin again
is private. The inside is the public. Those are industries indicated in
purple, covered over by God in some box which is indicated. So the hub is
Yeah. A green belt. Yeah. It's the model. You extra cities as all green.
This is a taxing going around. Mm
some gardens on in the structure itself.
Yeah, Hancock Tower
and finally the work we're doing now in at Arcosanti. We had some schemes
for this. Some diagrams produced Treaty Jersey start showing in minutes
and feed distances and time gaps between performances.
That in the case that you can make your day longer because you become more
effective in your activities by cutting off all the gaps between events,
performances. We have executives, housewives
repairman. So
now this is the work we do it in because there's junction we began with an
idea that was discarded because it was too flat. No, not really mentally
enough. I took a little section of this idea which is that and I developed
it in a much larger but much more pull together structure. This the line
we are, we buy, you're buying For 860 acres were using only 1% of that
land for the building. So the encroachment on the land is going to be
meaningful, meaningful.
This is the actual site. Some of the farmer and we have mm
and this is the rough model of the building. Were working, we're building
now some facilities here here. Yeah. Last year we spent most of the time
in setting up the camp. The camp is disassemble those panels. You can take
apart
for instance is a shower and toilet. Yeah.
And
wish you'd alone but
and it was made. The design was such that it would suggest a very frugal
approach to life almost like a cell.
It's a monastic told you to wait and the camp is going to become later on
maybe a playground or camping ground for people who wants to be doing one
of today's one. Tonight we have a larger, which is, which is the same area
of one of the towers in the building.
We are working at finding textures and called very much
individual. The last game this is the site when we are building using the
camp or regarding using garbage a compost.
Those cubes are feel inside those are 1212 ft inside.
Exactly.
This is the side of the building. The building would be about this high,
It's about 25 stories and the highest and it's about 10 acres.
This is part of the king of building this studio and putting up for myself
in this floor area is the same as floor area. One of those columns.
This is a girl who's been there two years now is she's operating the crane
some of the insides of model
the view the camp from my studio, it's finished in this, you're the model
one of the apps is I'm showing the possibility that you have planning your
own environment. If you, if you live there, you can, you can find the
inside and you can find part of the outside my spilling out from, let's
say from the window. So that at the end you would have some kind of
discipline given by the main structure and then this freedom of,
